Wilson Plan Embraces Some Projects in Valley : Budget: The largest share of local funds--$25 million--is proposed for CSUN to upgrade sewer, utilities and communications facilities.

Even with austerity replacing pork-barrel politics in hard times, Gov. Pete Wilson’s proposed budget includes a number of modest goodies for the San Fernando Valley area.

The biggest chunk of cash slated for capital improvements in the Valley is headed for Cal State Northridge--that is, if lawmakers agree to Wilson’s 1994-95 budget when it’s thrashed out in coming months.

The campus will get $25 million for the unglamorous purpose of upgrading its sewer, central plant, utilities and communications facilities and to remove asbestos from the engineering building.

For Mission College, Wilson has proposed $2.3 million to equip the school’s new learning resource center--a library project that has been under development for several years.

And Antelope Valley Community College stands to gain $2.8 million that Wilson earmarked for road construction so the northern part of the school can be connected to the rest of the campus.

At Glendale College, Wilson proposed spending $615,000 for a 3,000-square-foot addition to the fine arts lab, while College of the Canyons in Santa Clarita stands to gain nearly $4.5 million for its fine arts library, new labs and classrooms. The bulk of that money--$3.4 million--is pegged for construction of a fire break and access road around the perimeter of the campus.

The Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy, whose activities are financed mostly through voter-approved bond funds, received a slight boost in funding in the governor’s budget--just enough to cover a 5% raise for state employees, a spokeswoman said.

Wilson’s budget gives the conservancy $629,999, a bit more than the $610,000 it received from the state’s 1993-94 budget. But the key source of funding for the conservancy to buy up parklands is a bond measure that allocates $10 million annually through 1995.

Among the smaller Valley allocations in Wilson’s spending plan--but apparently among the most welcome--is $256,000 earmarked for a new emergency communications center at the San Fernando Police Department facility.

A spokesman said the Police Department’s network of amateur radio operators have been holding their weekly emergency communications drills in the basement of the dilapidated former police station. Now, if the Legislature approves Wilson’s budget, the volunteers will move to an addition to be built onto the department’s station house.
